This was a cute love story. I appreciated the descriptions of mental health and not shying away from complicated family dynamics that do not necessarily end “happily ever after” (not main couple - they of course have their HEA). You don’t have to have read the other books in the series to understand this book, but I think it would be helpful as characters from the other 2 pop up in this one.

Read this after yet another man disappointed me. It was so cute I both wanted to bathe with a toaster and giggle and kick my feet at the same time. 10/10 would recommend.

The storyline had pretty good depth for a rom-com/dramedy, but the ending felt a little abrupt. Overall worth my time, though (and loved that it took place in MN)!

A really good book! Not as much smut as I expected, but once I started it I couldn’t put it down. Such a strong plot line and great writing. My first book by Abby and I loved it!

I shamelessly love this book, thank you.

<blockquote>"Sometimes I feel like the seasons could come and go and come and go, a hundred years could pass, a thousand, the ground could collapse under us, this house could crumble and go back to the earth, and we would still be standing here frozen in time, because every <i>second</i> I'm with you is eternal."</blockquote>

I hope one day this love absolutely runs me over with a truck.

I truly LOVED the chemistry these two characters had with eachother, even it was sorta insta-loveish, it also kind of wasn't! I was screaming at Emma the entire time, like girl the love of your life is right there please do get him.

I believe my only complaint would be the pacing towards the end of the story, that shit was insane talk about whiplash.
